I know nothing about this movie, but it looks interesting.
Sep 20– From the Quran translated by E. H. Pal
Summary: Allah punishes many things, but also forgives.
Commentary: I'm just going to start off with Eliot's lead line from 15MAD here, "Women's Rights in the Harem." At first, kind of titillating. Oooh, harem! Exotic! Sexy! But also, intrigued by the implication/question of what rights you get as a sex-slave/concubine. Good tagline.
But that's not actually what this is about. There's a little about who you can and can't marry, punishment for fornication, etc. but the first chunk is really about inheritance, followed by some about disbelief in Allah in general.
Rather disappointing, overall.
